Pure Country

George Strait, Isabel Glasser, John Doe, Kyle Chandler, Lesley Ann Warren, Rory Calhoun

After 25 chart-topping hits, the singing star becomes a movie star! George Strait makes his film debut in an entertaining look into the heart and soul of country music from Young Guns director Christ...( read more )opher Cain.

Superstar Dusty Chandler (Strait) is tired of the smoke, the strobe lights and the overmiked sound of his arena spectaculars. One night, something snaps. "I'm just going to take a little walk," Dusty says as he walks out of the empty hall, ditching his beard, ponytail - and temporarily, his career - to reclaim his down-home country roots. But his manager (Leslie Ann Warren) retaliates: a stand-in (Kyle Chandler) lip-synchs his songs in concert. And a romance with a lovely rancher (Isabel Glasser) is on again, off again like a rodeo cowboy. The simple life can be complex, but it's nothing a revitalized country boy can't handle!

The wife is a HUGE George Strait fan, but I must admit that...I don't get it. This movie didn't help me, either.

Not too bad, George Straight's acting is a bit stiff, but he gives it a good try. It starts out a little slow but the last hour is fine. Great music and it does entertain.N

This isn't based on a true story. This isn't a true story about George Strait's life as a lot of people believe. It's just a good film with George Strait.
